Carsie Blanton - FEVER DREAM
oh the day was so hoton st. anthony street
that I slept on my cot
without even a sheet
when I crept to the door
and I cracked it a peek
in the weather did pour
like a pipe sprung a leak
so I slipped on my kicks
and the dress with the scoop
and I did up my lips
and stepped out on the stoop
where the light was so lush
and the air was so sweet
I fell into a hush
in the feverish heat
oh, summer in new orleans
so sudden and stranger than a
fever dream
so I walk to the west
on the cobbles and bricks
mockingbird in a nest
talks in cackles and clicks
